seriously, you get what you paid for. If you want it to do it right, take it to PlatinumVIP
if you want crappy job that the paint doesn't match the rest of the body, then take it to any other shops.
Platinum offers lifetime guarantee, do you know any other place that offers that kind of service? I doubt it....
Just don't go and cry about how dissatisfy you are afterwards
especially if u got yourself a replica kit, those are a pain in the butt hole to install since most of the time they do not fit right....

C&C is great but $$$ -But I believe Nathan offers a lifetime warranty against chipping due to normal driving conditions.
There' MPAB (Glasurit is used its $$ most shops charge another 10% to use this stuff....) ..Location isn't the best but I can vouch for Johnsons work... Price isn't $$ does a good job for a great price.....
Platinum VIP (Decent work)-They know how to fit most parts well as they work with those types of parts...
K&W- Decent work as well... They've done quite a few cars =)

different strokes for different folks. OP purchased a replica kit, I doubt that he would want to spend some big cash for "high" branded paint. (NO offense btw)
and Jay, what do you mean by "They know how to fit most parts well as they work with those types of parts... " ??
we deal with everything, from authentic to replicas to OEM, any body shop can fit any type of parts if they know what they are doing.

We shoot with PPG Enviro-base paint and we are expecting DuPont to be in house in about a week or two. but if you want to use Glasurit, BASF, or even house of Kolors, we can do that too.

just an update.. in the end i went to dtm and they did a fantastic job for a great price. platvip's qoute was a little too pricey for me and it didn't even include if fitment was off...
anyways pics are in this thread:

But as for the price paid at PVIP, you get what you pay for, they do great work for what you pay.Good work doesn't necessarily come cheap.
